Question: "Are God and Jesus the same person?"

Answer: The answer to the question “are God and Jesus the same person?” really depends on what is meant by the same person.

If this question means to ask “Is Jesus really God?” or “Is Jesus God in the flesh?” then the answer would be “Yes—Jesus is fully divine. He has all the attributes of God” (see Colossians 2:9).

However, the question could be interpreted another way, which would require a different answer. Theologically speaking, Jesus and the Father are different Persons of the Trinity. They are one in nature and essence, but they are different in personhood.

There is an ancient heresy called modalism (and a more modern variation called Oneness theology), which teaches that God does not exist in three co-equal, co-eternal Persons, but only one. According to modalism, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are not three individual Persons but simply three modes of revelation: sometimes God reveals Himself as the Father, other times as the Son, and still other times as the Holy Spirit. If the question is asked, “are Jesus and God the Father the same person?” the modalist would answer “yes,” but biblical Trinitarians would answer “no.”

The doctrine of the Trinity is the best explanation for all of the biblical evidence. There is only one God, but He exists eternally as three individual Persons and has revealed Himself as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. This is different from the teaching of three individual gods because the three Persons of the Trinity are co-equal, co-eternal, interdependent, and always in complete agreement. There is one God who exists as three individual Persons. Thus, the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God; however, the Father is not the same person as the Son, nor is the Son the same person as the Holy Spirit. This is sometimes complicated by the fact that God the Father is often simply called “God” in the New Testament.

The first three verses of the Gospel of John give us an idea of how this works out:

John 1:1. In the beginning was the Word . . . (We know from verse 14 that the Word is Jesus. In the beginning, He was already there.)

. . . and the Word was with God . . . (At least two Persons are in view here: one called “God” and one called “the Word.”)

. . . and the Word was God (The Word is distinct from God, yet He is also called “God.” The Word is divine in His essential nature.)

John 1:2. He was with God in the beginning (After the essential identification of the Word as God, once again the distinction is emphasized—He was with God when it all began.)

John 1:3. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made (Here, we see that the Word is actually the Creator. He made everything. In the Old Testament, we are told that God created everything—Genesis 1:1.)

It is this kind of biblical information that led to the formulation of the doctrine of the Trinity. When “God” is spoken of in the Old Testament, most people probably think of God the Father, but it would be more accurate to think of “God the Trinity.” In the New Testament, we see how each Person of the Trinity assumed different roles in the redemption of lost humanity, but the different Persons are always in complete agreement, acting as one.

Jesus is God, but Jesus (who is God the Son) is not the same Person as God the Father or God the Holy Spirit.

feel like this flew over alot of people's heads so lemme break it down real quick

In the first line on surface level it looks like just a shoutout to Canadian legend David Foster, Drake reached out to him to come over and lay some keys as David revealed in an interview last year:

However later on we will see it pay off as it is a setup to the whole "The Bodyguard" wordplay in this stanza

In the next line, he says his bodyguards don't look like Kevin Costner which has the literal meaning and is a wordplay on the movie Kevin Costner stars in with Whitney Houston who is referenced on the next line:

The premise of the movie ties in with the title and hook of the song as it is about a former secret service agent (Kevin Costner) who is hired to protect a POPSTAR (Whitney Houston)

David Foster who was mentioned in the previous line was the producer of the soundtrack for the movie which is the highest selling soundtrack of all time with 45M sold worldwide, in fact Tuscan Leather samples a song from the soundtrack written by David Foster & Whitney Houston

the last line ties it all up with a Whitney Houston reference thats a play on the name of the city

Movie taste and music taste are directly correlated and proportional..both art. Case in point, Marlon Brando is the greatest actor in my book. Your greatest actor is probably Kevin Hart
